The Forgotten and Blind

Chapter 2 – Who Are You?

A loud bang was heard as the expensive car crashed into a large building and thankfully no one was injured. Unfortunately for the couple, they both lay unconscious on the concrete ground, wounds, blood, and misery surrounded the two. A lady that was only taking an evening jog immediately stopped in her tracks and gave a startled jump and flipped out her rather old cell phone and quickly dialed 911.

In Itachi's world, it was dark, there was no light, and all he could do was squeeze his eyes shut and try to forget everything that happened. A picture of Sakura soon appeared in the middle of his concentration and started fading… 'No…' he spoke inwardly. 'I made a promise I swore to keep. I will remember her… I can forget about my friends, my family but never Sakura.' He concentrated harder, to make the picture in his thoughts last longer. Adrenaline soon died down and the pain down his spine and ribs could be felt as he bit back a scream of agony.

Sakura's world was just black. All she saw was nothing, she couldn't remember anyone anymore, and she was too frightened to open her eyes. 'I can't remember anything. I remember that my name is Haruno Sakura though… Nothing else.' She sadly thought. Sakura couldn't feel any pain, like her body was numb with fear as she curled up the nearest warmth, which were a pair of arms and a chest of a stranger she didn't know.

Hospital

Bright lights flooded the green-eyed girl's vision as she awoke inside a room of white. 'Where am I?' she asked herself curiously as she sat up straight, soon regretting the idea and immediately laid her spinning head back down against the feather-filled pillow. The door clicked open to see a man dressed in a white coat with a clipboard and pencil in his hand. "Good morning, how are you feeling?" he gave a smile. Sakura noticed he had strange silver hair and circular glasses.

"Um… My head's still spinning." She whispered.

He nodded, "Do you remember who you are?"

She nodded, "Haruno Sakura."

Smiling with satisfaction, he continued interrogating while taking important notes, "Do you remember who I am? Do you remember anyone at all besides yourself?"

Sakura frowned, "No."

"Hm… Well, to start, I am you doctor, Yakushi Kabuto." He gave another small smile before writing the word, 'amnesia' down onto his clipboard. "Throughout the weeks, many visitors will appear, so don't be alarmed. They might just bring back your memory."

Sakura nodded while two people soon burst through the door, one of them in tears of distress. "Oh my God… Sakura, you're all battered up! I'm so sorry, I wish this would've never happened!" the woman with long onyx hair wailed and grabbed Sakura's hand. Sakura obviously didn't know what to expect and tried shaking her off.

"Ano… Please let go… Who are you? Do I know you?" she asked.

The woman looked appalled and quickly swiveled her head to look at the doctor as he whispered, "Amnesia. She only remembers herself."

The woman cried some more and made words, "I-I'm Uch-Uchiha M-Mikoto…" she gasped between the words.

The man next to her with gray-brown hair nodded, "Uchiha Fugaku."

"Oh…" Sakura nodded.

"Oh please… Dear God, please tell you still remember Ita—" Mikoto was quickly interrupted.

Kabuto dragged her towards a corner and whispered, "I highly suggest you do not mention his name. Sometimes, a name, or an event will be remember so suddenly, the other memories will come back so quickly and it will cause pressure, distress, and maybe some mental issues. I want you to keep Itachi away from Sakura no matter how hard it is for you to see them apart."

Mikoto hesitated before nodding and trudging back to Sakura with a soft smile, "Sakura, dear…" Fugaku and Kabuto went outside to fill out an information sheet on Sakura for her parents were dead and had no other relatives that she would know of. "Would it be okay if we just talk?"

The short pink haired girl hesitantly nodded, "Of course…" She didn't feel comfortable around this strange woman.

"What else do you remember?" Mikoto asked and dried her tears with a handkerchief with the Uchiha symbol embroidered onto it.

The girl thought for a while, "I definitely remember the educational stuff, myself and my past, and… that's about it."

Mikoto nodded, a little satisfied that they didn't have to re-teach her education. "Ah… I remember one time Fugaku, our sons, you and I took us all to the ice rink. I remembered how you kept slipping." She smiled. "Fugaku was even worse, each step he took, he would fall right on his face!" Sakura broke into a giggle. She had a feeling that Fugaku was a perfectionist and hated losing to anything.

"Hm… How about right when you get out of this hospital, I'll take you shopping!" Mikoto offered, hoping that maybe she'll agree.

"Um…" Sakura was hesitant, but then looked into the onyx haired woman's dark orbs to see desperation and sorrow. "Of course."

Mikoto's eyes lit with brightness and full of hope that it almost made Sakura feel sad, "Wonderful! I bet you need your rest, I'll leave you be for now." Before leaving, she stared at her for a couple of seconds and quickly yet quietly shut the door.

'Why can't I remember anything?' Sakura curled her knees towards her chest. 'There are so many people that I forgot and they will be so upset… Just like Mikoto-san…' The green-eyed girl bit her tongue hard, 'Think! I just have to think hard. Really hard… Maybe… Maybe,' tears started to form. 'Maybe I'll remember then.' Sakura silently sobbed and hugged her knees to her chest. It wasn't the fact that she saw Mikoto crying, it was the fact that she knew she has so many people who cared for her, and yet she cannot remember them; causing them great pain.

While Sakura cried silently, Mikoto quickly ran towards her son's room, grabbing air near her chest of where her heart is. "Oh dear God, please let him remember us…"

Mikoto's heart pound each step she took, all the noise around her were all surrounded by the beating of her heart as she entered the room to see her son Itachi talking the doctor. "I'm terribly sorry Itachi-san… But, Haruno Sakura is dead. She died of blood loss." Mikoto knew better than to tell him the truth, but it pained her to see him so miserable and upset. "I'm going to take off the bandages around your eyes, and tell me if you see anything."

Itachi slowly nodded, still thinking about Sakura, 'I made a promise… I didn't forget her…' he clenched his hands together tightly as the doctor unwrapped the cloth. "Open your eyes." Kabuto ordered. As soon as Itachi opened his eyes, he saw a bright flash of light, and then, darkness. "Do you see anything?"

Itachi narrowed his eyes, "Um… I think the lights are off."

Mikoto gasped to see the results. Kabuto sighed and shook his head, "No, Itachi-san, you are blind."
